Stopping in for my threadly plug for the visual novel I'm writing. Hang out with Cynthia in Olivine City and solve crimes! Also featuring Jasmine.

>What's new?Still trying to commission art, still not really getting any responses back. I donated $5 on ko-fi to an artist who I knew took commissions but who I wasn't sure if they were open or not, just so I could ask if they were open. I thought maybe leading with money would help me make friends. (It worked on VNAnon) The artist's response was basically, "I'm backlogged but if you tell me what you want you can get in the queue." And that seemed like kind of a nonstarter since I need a whole bunch of art for various scenes. They didn't even give me a price.
I'm going through every scene and adding different expressions to Jasmine and Cynthia like "frowning" and "looking at the sprite next to them" instead of just staring blankly at the reader all the time. Cynthia looks a little derpy sometimes (I think her nose is the problem) but I can always edit or change out the specific sprites once I have the game set to call the right expression at the right time. If I was less of an amateur I probably would have done this as I was writing/editing the scenes to begin with but I didn't know what my solution for art/sprites was even going to be at the time.
